Second biopsy concurs

The second biopsy from duodenum during the spy glass procedure was found to be granulytic sarcoma, which confirms what was found from the first sample. Brushings from the bile duct area was discovered to be inflammation, but it could be a false negative. In any case, as it's looking more and more like an extramedullary tumour we won't be treating the tumour itself, but the cause: ie leukemia.

Next step, bone marrow sample on Monday.

Min Ser has also been discharged from Selayang Hospital. Phew, we weren't sure when it would be and didn't want to delay the next procedure later than needed. He is still doing well, but getting weaker, and he has a bad ache in his left shoulder and back that is keeping him awake.
